Grand BeyDay
Battle of the Millenium!

Will have 15 lbs of Pulled Chicken in crock pots to feed everybody and I bought 2 cases of water. If you would like to bring a bag of chips or something that would be very appreciated. Hope we have a great time.

MAJOR SITE CHANGE
Now at Millenium Park!
With a new forecast of 60% chance of Thunderstorms, combined with construction around the picnic shelter at John Ball Park closing the parking lot near it... I decided to move it to Millenium Park. The Shelters are currently all open, so this is my new plan. I am very sorry for any inconvenience.

Please Read and be familiar with WBO Standard Rules
Zero-G beyblades are now legal!


Place:
Millenium Park Picnic Shelter A (just up the road from John Ball Park) Map to Millenium Park There is no exit for Butternut Dr so either take the Fulton exit and drive around John Ball Park to Butternut to Millenium or take The Wilson exit and just when you cross the river take a right in front of Johnson Park and follow Veterans Memorial Drive around to Maynard.
Grand Rapids, MI

Date:
Saturday May 26 2012
Time:
Registration and new bladers beyblade inspection from
@ 11:00am-12:15pm
Bladers rules review meeting and registration cutoff @12:30
Tournament starts somewhere between 12:45-1:00pm

Format:
13-24 would be block Round Robin (this is what I'm hoping for, 24 bladers = 4 blocks of 6, so there is no 0-2s and you're done like in Double Elimination), if we do get (which we might) 25 - 40 bladers, it'll be Double Elimination. All the previous is for the main event. Block Round Robin, we will take the winner of each block. and Double Elimination will take care of itself. Seedings will go by Beypoints the member has.


Surfaces:
As long as it's not wet on the ground I want to do it on blankets on the grass. If it is wet at all there will be picnic tables we'll cover with blankets and foam pads I have. The Picnic tables are above grass so no concrete to worry about.

Fees:
Standard WBO fees $5 for entry, $10 for passport.
If you're getting a blader passport please get it before the tournament if possible.

Prizes: 1st Place = Zero-G Start Dash Set (stadium + Red Samurai Ifriad) and Zero-G grip
2nd and 3rd choice of selection of Takara Tomy products:
Winged Pegasis
Guardian L-Drago
Diablo Nemesis
Big Bang Pegasis
Flash Sagittario
Samurai Ifraid
Vulcan Horuseus
(Hasbro)

Read the rules all Hasbro, Tamara Tomy and Sonokong Metal Fight Beyblades are legal in any natural combinations. You can not alter them with excessive paint, stickers where they don't belong, unnatural wearing down or just parts that no longer resemble their state if they were new.

Eh, we can advertise our tournaments wherever, but why does it matter if it is on Facebook ?
I'm sure Da-WRETCHED will put video on his Youtube channel again as he has for the last two tournaments. I'll try to have better success with my video camera too haahaaa. But not really a Facebook thing, will probably share the links on the WBO fb page though... I did post a link to this thread on Maranda's (from WoodTV 8 and WOTV41) page so hopefully our turnout rocks.

Going to the zoo today, also going to check out all the picnic sites I found another on a map by a little band shell. that would be sweet if we could do the tournament on a stage if it's not being used.
NOTE SLIGHT LOCATION CHANGE! Still at John Ball Park, I just found an old Band shell and picnic area that I thought would be cool to do our tournament on a stage! It's in the OP so check it out!
Oh yea this tournament will be awsome
Hey guys, let's look out for each other. I believe there are a few bladers on the possible attendees list that can't make it unless they get a ride, like PattyCakeChamp from the Detroit area. If you have an open seat in your car lets help each other out and give them a ride if at all possible. And bladers if you get a ride from somebody please be super appreciative! Thanks guys, I want this to be the best tournament of the year!
(UNTIL NEXT MONTH! Always learning, Always improving!)
but I want this to be big for beydays I want to have more people at our tournament than any other in the world! Lets make it happen!
